It’s back to school time! Along with returning to school comes learning to cooperate
in a classroom setting. A fun book
that helps children reflect on their behavior is Mine-O-Saur, by Sudipta
Bardhan-Quallen. Children are
usually interested in dinosaurs and the author uses this interest to create a
character who alienates his friends because he can’t share. The illustrations by David Clark add to the playfulness of this
book while also helping children picture how it looks when they don’t share. This short story can have a long
lasting impact on helping children learn how important it is to share. We enjoy learning from this book!
*Why do you think the character’s name is Mine-O-Saur?
*How do the other children feel about Mine-O-Saur?
*What does Mine-O-Saur learn about sharing?
*What are some ways you can share with others?
